alt Hacker NewsWeb uses web protocols, notweb uses notweb protocols. When I write an XMPP bot it has to speak XMPP, not HTTP. I could write my video game server to use XMPP but why the heck would I do that? If I choose a badly fitting protocol, it's on me.

I think one problem there is that a lot of places block other ports. Was that not why websockets runs on http ports?
